I have some sprouts! Which I haven’t taken pictures of yet. Sorry. I have one tomato sprout, which is awesome because I wasn’t sure if they would sprout outdoors. And I have three little bean sprouts, which are adorable. There may also be some swiss chard sprouts, I couldn’t tell for sure.
Hopefully more tomatoes sprout. And I’m still waiting on the lettuce and other greens. Fingers crossed!
In other news, it’s been pretty damp here and I’ve seen dozens of snails. They are so weird and yet oddly cute at the same time. We didn’t really have snails where I grew up. I remember really distinctly the first time I encountered them, on a family road trip to Southern California. It had rained and there were snails EVERYWHERE so it was basically like a snail massacre wherever we walked or drove. I remember the minivan crunching over snails and feeling really bad for the little guys.
I spotted some on Saturday and decided to add them my collection of backyard wildlife photography.
Aka small slimy things.
Also I cut some flowers from our yard yesterday and then when I brought them in one of them had a huge snail on the stem. I decided that snails in the house are way less cute and way more gross than snails outside.
Little snail crawling along my front porch.
What it looks like right before a snail eats you.
Snail friends. Adorable. Slimy. Slow.
